Gymnastics & knee pain

“I've had some dodgy knees, they've been twitching a little bit and aching after long walks, so I thought I'd go and get it sorted. I've noticed it's been much easier to get back into gymnastics. I'd not actually been to a physiotherapist before, so I was surprised by how friendly Joel was.”

“It doesn't take me 20 minutes to get out of bed in the morning due to stiffness and pain. The sports massages are great, Joel really pays attention to where the problem is.” — from Rehana's written Google review

Foot pain from playing padel

“I came to JN Physiotherapy because I was having issues with my feet from playing padel a lot. I've been able to come off court without any pain, and play more regularly. Joel was professional and knowledgeable, and really walked me through the issues and how the treatment was going to help.”

“I've had about five sessions of combined massage and cupping therapy with Joel for my back pain, and the improvement has been remarkable. In the beginning, I could barely sit after each session because of how tight everything was, but as we continued, I noticed steady progress. Now I'm able to sit with much less pain, and the difference is genuinely life-changing.”

“I've been suffering joint and nerve pain for over a decade. Joel took the time to understand my condition and was able to explain the reason for my years of pain better than the doctors. I am happy to say that it doesn't take me 20 minutes to get out of bed in the morning due to stiffness and pain, and my migraines aren't as aggressive after treatment.”

“I rarely leave Google reviews, but after struggling with persistent lower-back pain and left-sided sciatica for several years, I felt Joel deserved recognition. By the time I started treatment, the pain had progressed to numbness in my leg, and sitting for longer than 20 minutes was extremely uncomfortable. I have since been seeing Joel weekly for acupuncture and cupping, and the improvement has been remarkable. The constant pain and discomfort have gone, I can sit comfortably again, and most importantly I am happily running again.”

“I can't recommend Joel highly enough. He's been a huge help in getting me back to CrossFit after injuring my ACL. I'd already seen a few physios, but hadn't really made much progress. He explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and I never felt like I was just being given a generic rehab plan. He listened to what I was worried about, especially when it came to getting back to CrossFit, and tailored everything around that. I'm now back doing CrossFit without pain and feel much more confident and resilient than I did before.”

“One of the great things about working with Joel is his consultations don't feel like you are in a clinic, but instead as though you're talking with a friend. He is very easy to talk to and is good at asking the right questions to get a complete background about your activity so you can receive the care and advice you need to take care of yourself.”

“Had such an insightful session with Joel in my short stay in Birmingham. The whole session itself was a physio masterclass experience. He listened to the history of my injury, done relevant tests and proceeded to give the treatment my injury needed to further help the healing process. On top of that, he gave an easy to follow strength protocol in order for my injury to get better and stronger.”

“I'm so impressed with the service provided by Joel. My shoulder had been in agony for a couple of months and I had to take time off work which was causing me stress. Joel listened to me and provided expert advice and treatment. My shoulder is back to normal after a few sessions with him, and I can't express my gratitude enough.”

“I've had a great experience with Joel. From the first session, he really listened to me and made me feel heard, which is not always the case when I've seen other doctors. I hadn't tried cupping or red light before and he explained how they would help with my back. We did 3 sessions. The back is no longer in agony and I've enjoyed walking with my pals again. I'm feeling back to normal and will be aiming for my first 10K run with his advice.”

“I've seen other physios and chiropractors before, but working with Joel has been on a completely different level. I originally came in with pain that had been holding me back in the gym, and within just a few sessions I noticed a huge difference, not just in pain, but in how confident I feel moving again. He actually takes the time to understand what is causing the pain and built a plan for it.”

“I highly recommend Joel for anyone with back issues. I went to him after a car accident which hurt my back and he was able to give me amazing treatment and advice which has made a huge difference. I no longer have pain and I feel strong again.”
